Congratulations on your purchase of the Ready Remote Car Starter. Ready Remote Car Starter allows you to start the car by remote control from the comfort
of your home or office in order to cool it down in the summer or warm it up in the winter.
Ready Remote Car Starter is for automatic transmission/fuel injected gasoline vehicle only. Please see pages 5-6 for important information on vehicles with
factory anti-theft systems. Ready Remote is an extremely sophisticated system with multiple built-in safety and security features.
• Will start your car by remote control, and run the heater,
defroster, or air conditioner to warm up or cool down the car
from up to 800 feet away!
• Is designed to start the car if it is in park, and only if the
hood is closed.
• Will attempt to start the car for up to six seconds, but no
longer (to avoid damage to the starter motor). Should the
car not start, or if it stalls after starting, the remote starter
will make two further attempts to start it.
